Season one of 13 Reasons Why, the Gomez-McCarthy show about teen suicide, is based on a best-selling book by the same name. Katherine Langford stars as Hannah, a young girl who takes her own life while Dylan Minnette plays the boy who finds a tape recording left behind explaining the 13 reasons why she did.

The first season will include 13 episodes, two of which will be directed by McCarthy who helmed the Oscar-winning movie, Spotlight. While Gomez is serving as an executive producer, she will not appear in the series in season one.

Netflix’s new title list for the week will also include season two of Better Call Saul (season three premieres on AMC on April 10); Five Who Came Back, a Netflix original documentary about five prestigious directors who made films for the military during World War II; and The Discovery, a Netflix original sci-fi movie starring Rooney Mara, Robert Redford and Jason Segel.
